2/08/09 - Getting Lost

I guess I learned a little bit of a lesson today. No matter how simple a trip into the woods (or anyplace when out solo) may seem, pack a little extra gear to be prepared for any unplanned circumstances. This mornings workout plans consisted of heading out for about an 75 to 90 min XC skiing trip. I ended up being out for 150. I was fine, I just got a little lost. But I did not have any way of letting the wife know where I was and if I was OK or had run into a tree and was in serious trouble. As a result I will definetly be packing my cell phone and other provisions for all trips. All for now. Be safe.
